A subscriber to the ESL/CSLG is a computer located on the Cornell campus or other branch campus. A subscriber has the following rights granted for the duration of the subscription period:
HP is granting you a License; that is, the right to use the Library Software in accordance with the following terms:
This document certifies that the computer identified above is licensed to use all software titles in the Software Library and must accompany the computer at all times. The system manager must make library members aware of the terms and conditions specified in this document. If an audit of the computer occurs, this certificate must be presented.
To request software, please send an e-mail message to

Documentation for all of the software products in the ESL/CSLG is available on CD-ROM in various formats. CD-ROM documentation, which HP updates periodically during the year (and provides to us on a subscription basis), is available online from any X-Windows System on campus and, when we have backup for the materials, for a one-week loan period. In all cases, the most current CD-ROM release (as it may provide the only copy of documentation for one of the products in the ESL/CSLG) will not be available for loan but will remain online for reference. Previous versions, however, can be borrowed and will be available for a one-week extension providing no one is on the waiting list for the CD-ROM.
Currently, loans are handled by the CSLG librarian for that operating system. E-mail sent to
will reach the correct person.
ESL/CSLG members have the option of purchasing documentation for specific software titles at a discount. Write to
for more information on hpw to go about this.
Many of the titles in the ESL/CSLG program require a license PAK to run. License PAKs will be sent via electronic mail to each department's CSLG administrator whenever a new CD has been purchased. The latest PAKs are also available from
